Too often, retailers ignore the connectivity between customer channel preferences and buying behavior. Channel preferences no longer pertain to only transaction-based interactions; customers are interacting with brands in entirely new ways. The emergence of new marketing channels, such as social media and mobile, require a retailer to provide consistent branding across all retail channels, and to engage the customer with marketing messages through their channel of choice. As consumers turn to multiple channels for their media consumption and shopping needs, retailers must ensure disparate channels are working in harmony. Between February and May 2010, Aberdeen surveyed 145 retail enterprises to determine the current state of multi-channel marketing initiatives.
